CWS Summer Weekly Update – June 30, 2025 Weekend Recap:
While I haven't had the chance to hear much from players or families this past weekend, from what I did hear, it may not have been the best weekend on the field for the 14U team. Remember, every game is a valuable learning experience and an opportunity to grow. Keep your spirits high, stay positive, and enjoy the journey. Great things are ahead!

715-570-7237 Reminder:Players should help set up and clean up at every practice. Our coaches are volunteers—let’s support them!
Inclement Weather:Is practice still on?!? It's challenging to provide advance notice if practice needs to be canceled. Coaches will do what they can to notify us if weather conditions change, but conflicting forecasts from different weather apps make it hard to guarantee any advance notice, be prepared that practice will go on! With our limited number of practices, we aim to continue even in the rain—unless there's lightning or severe weather. In such cases, coaches will clear everyone from the field and seek shelter under the stands (not the metal bleachers) or other safe spaces. They know the safety protocols for resuming practice if it's suspended due to weather.
Next Tournament: Pipe City (HS) – July 11–13 Schedule:The communication being shared by tournament officials is that hopefully by 7/4 they will have a draft schedule.From what I have seen, it does not look like we are slotted to play Friday evening (remember nothing is for sure until the days before). Once we know more, we will be sure to pass things along. Waivers:This is the second Lacrosse America tournament this year, if you completed a Waiver for LAXconsin, the waiver is good for one year including this tournament and Madison Classic.Any players needing a waiver, parents will have this email from Lacrosse America shortly. I think everyone is good! Hotel Info:Currently, all blocked room deadlines have expired.The tournament does partner with Team Travel Source and should you need assistance still, you may reach out for help.TEAM TRAVEL SOURCE
